ITL2 = Italy 2 Tuscany journey
April 12, 2018 Thursday Tuscany day3
Genoa to Lucca, Italy
Crashed and slept hard. Next morning sunshine and more clear could see more of the Genoa docks from the apartment balcony. It was really fascinating to think that right here where I was standing… was where the Explorers launched from to go to the New World.
Heading out early, still learning Italian traffic only lost a couple of times, circled around the same place a couple of times and finally headed out of town on the A10.
This huge Bridge was such a neat structure, phenomenal in size, So unique I had to take a couple of pictures. I could see the valley and the river the train tracks followed down from Milan, 400 feet below. These were the train tracks from Genoa to Milan that we traveled on the day before.
This huge bridge was maybe three-quarters of a mile long. A close encounter moment, not that close but 5 months later this Mondavi Bridge would collapse killing some 40 + Italian citizens. A horrible disaster and I still say a prayer for all of my Italian friends that endured this tragedy.
Stop for coffee and pastry a few miles down the road.
You can see the mountainous and Valley region along the Italian Coast and see how the bridges and tunnels make driving Italy unique,
some glimpses of coastal cities on the Mediterranean. Headed To lucca, Italy.
You never drink twice from the same stream.
Just because you wander doesn't mean you're lost.
